It’s, not just draft experts. The head coach and GM for the current SB Champs laughed out loud at this pick.

Agreed. Not being boring is okay, and I’m certainly in favor of questioning decisions and looking at alternatives, but the level of hostility and animosity and vehemence that has come out in reactions to this pick is scary. It makes me worry about the stability of some posters here, and whether we need to be concerned about an active shooter invading Patriot Place in response to an unpopular draft pick.
not talking specifically about you, just saying that the overreaction to this pick makes it hard to have a serious conversation and maintain perspective, and that bleeds over to affect responses to posters that aren’t so over the top…
Belichick said at his own press conference that Strange “wouldn’t have lasted much longer” and that the team might have taken him at No. 21 if they didn’t trade that pick to the Chiefs for the 29th, 94th, and 121st selections.
So, let me guess whose confidence you do have. There is only one NFL head coach within 100 victories of Belichick's 318 who is still alive. That would be Andy Reid. Sorry to see you go, but they do have a pretty good message board for the KC fans. Better hurry, though, Andy's heart is under a lot of pressure to keep tickin'.Bill has a long way to go to gain back my confidence.

I've been a patriots fan for 35 years and a season ticket holder for 12. I live in the Boston area, I am pretty much their target audience. If I am feeling this way...the patriots are in trouble.Bill has a long way to go before I lose my confidence…

I dont know why you like the patriots...probably the same reason I have friends who were 49ers fans growing up.
I really wonder if Pats would have taken Penning at #21 if the Saints hadn't snagged him at #19? There's no way BB is feeling good about his OT's - Wynn in a contract year and Brown who is old and injury prone. I hope we get Raimann today - he has Patriot all over him... European, ex-TE, late bloomer...
That was my thinking as well.
That's an absurd amount of psychoanalysis. Like Occam's Beach Ball...Looks like Bill underestimated the market for Karras who signed in Cincy for $18 mill and Bill decided to fix his mistake by reaching on a guard in round 1.
It seems like at least from Giardi that the Pats were taking this player no matter what. Not sure if they view Strange as more valuable or not.
